Does this unit use a charcoal filter to trap the smoke

No, there is no filter in this unit. I have used this extensively since I purchased it and I have yet to have a problem with anything that I put in it. I have cooked baby back ribs, a whole 6lb. roasting chicken, potatoes, etc. There doesn't seem to be a problem with anything that I put in it. I know you wouldn't be sorry if you bought this. It reduces the cooking time and seals the meats and they stay juicy.

There is NO smoke, and it is the best small oven you will find. I do everything from making toast, muffins, coffee cake, roasted vegetables, and baking a chicken which all turn out beautifully. I never use my large oven which is part of my stove. I have two of these and they are in use every single day....healthy cooking!

It don't have a filter. If it smokes your burning your food. This is an oven, not a smoker.

What does rise is more like vapor to me, not smoke. This is my second infrared-type cooking oven. This one, however, is by far the best. I failed to mention that when you have to check on your items that are being cooked, you can just simply tilt the cover over and it hangs on a hook. You then turn over a chicken, rearrange ribs, etc so much easier! My first one had a big glass bowl and it was difficult being able to get ahold of the item being cooked.

I bought one of these from Amazon (used), it didn't work. Luckily I was able to return it and get my money back. I also bought a cookbook from Amazon that never arrived (they said it was undeliverable - what a joke!). I then bought an oven from Morningware and it blew out the 1st time I tried to use it. Well, they sent me a new power head and all seems to be well now, so..... I just completely disassembled the old one and there is no filter inside. Good Luck!

In the situation you describe I don't they would clear the air in your whole appartment with one unit . In my office, where I frequently smoke, one unit with three filters does an excellent job of deodorizing one room but won't clear two rooms for several hours. If there is one room where the odor seems to come into your place it might work otherwise you might want to use two machines with carbon filters.

Yes; a wrapped new HEPA-type filter is included. The one thing I jave learned with air filtration systems is that you can get all qualities of filters, from activated charcoal, to Hepa-type, to true Hepa. This is my second identical unit (for another room) and it works very well. What I have done is use the filter that comes with the unit, and when it is time, I replace it with a true Hepa, which is only a few bucks more.

No, but it last for 12 months under normal use. If you have a relatively high useage, I would check it more often. On the other hand, the charcoal pre-filter that comes with most air cleaner units is washable and should be changed every 3 months which should help your HEPA filter last for the advertised 12 months (Google cleaning charcoal filters). And lastly, they do make "washable" HEPA filters...THEY ARE MORE EXPENSIVE and I haven't seen many good reviews.

I believe so. I've been taking it off -- there's a filter paper package underneath that seems to keep the charcoal in just fine. I haven't had any problems.

This model has the pair of activated charcoal filters that are fastened on top of the HEPA filter to deal with odors. There is a screen-style prefilter attached to the input vent that is supposed to catch the big stuff like actual hairs. Both this screen prefilter and the HEPA filter can be vacuumed; the pair of charcoal filters are disposable. If you don't want to use the charcoal filters, you can remove them and the purifier will work just fine using the prefilter and HEPA filter only.

Yes, it does have a charcoal filter as well as two regular meal filters for oily residues. They are easy to install with a little fooling around. It helps to read the instructions first.

the lady I purchased the filters for puts it next to her area that cigarettes are being smoked so that the house does not have the smell of cigarettes. she says it does quite well.

No. It attaches to you Bradley smoke generator. It is simply a box that allows the smoke to cool prior to entering the smoking chamber.

If there is room in your filter, you may as well just add it. However, it can take the place of your charcoal if you don't have the room. My filters not have the room, so I put it where the charcoal would. It is a nice product.

You can have a charcoal filter installed in the fan (I think you have to order it separately, but I would double check on that). I have the charcoal filter in mine but it does very little in terms of neutralizing cooking odors in the kitchen (and does nothing for smoke). My old range had a hood that vented the air outside and the fan on this microwave does not even come close in quality to a vented hood.

It does not. It's got all the stuff on the bottom to clean out the charcoal, but not a charcoal lighter :( I think that feature is in the "platinum" models only these days

No it uses the Bradley discs that feed into the heating element. You detach the heating element from the box, connect the cold smoker to the box then reattach the heating element to the cold smoker attachment. It smokes cheeses great.

Yes, fill the filter with water and let it drain until all the filter media is wet. This is important in order to release all the charcoal residue out before you install it. It will take a while to work through and you will have to keep topping it off as it works down.

It does not. I prefer it this way since I have an under-sink water filter that does a much better job than those little charcoal filters, but you may prefer otherwise.

I would think if you used a charcoal filter in this unit, it would "help" eliminate lime, but a high lime content would greatly reduce the longevity of the filter and they are somewhat expensive.

Yes this the way I used it, but you will need to purchase the charcoal filters to cut down on smoke & cooking smells!
